21.12.2011 An empty room This implies many things, including that we’re closed now after a fantastic Christmas party, that earlier this room and another were full of people laughing and talking and being kind (mostly), that finally, at 4pm I finished cleaning from lunch and could go home, and that I’m now on holidays for almost four weeks. Oh yes, oh yes and OH YES. In short, while I had a wonderful day- really, really wonderful actually, despite a lunch that fed around 60- this was the sweetest thing I’ve ever seen.
